Spark Plug Wire Ignition Systems: Step-by-Step Diagnostics with the KM20
Fig. 4 โ Capacitive pick-up on spark plug wire
- Power On: Turn on your KM20 Multisystem Ignition Analyzer.
- Select SPW Mode: Confirm or switch to SPW (Spark Plug Wire) mode using the Ignition System button.
- Set Engine Cycles: Press the Engine Cycles button to match the number of cycles of the engine you’re testing (2, 4, or DIS).
- Choose Measurement: Select the primary value you want to see on the main display: RPM, spark burn time, or spark KVolt.
- Configure Secondary Display: Choose to show either the maximum/minimum readings of your main measurement or the two complementary measurements.
- Measure: Place the capacitive pick-up over a spark plug wire and observe the readings. (See Fig. 4)
Important Tips for Accurate Spark Plug Wire Measurements:
- Consistent Positioning:
- Keep the capacitive pick-up at the same relative position for each spark plug wire measurement. A 90ยฐ angle or parallel to the wire is recommended.
- RPM and Burn Time Flexibility:
- These measurements aren’t as sensitive to the pick-up’s exact position but ensure it can detect the signal.
- Minimizing Interference:
- If wires are bundled together, separate them during testing to avoid false readings.

KV Adjust Function: Matching Your Readings
In SPW mode, you can calibrate the KM20’s spark plug wire peak voltage scale to align with other tools like ignition scopes:
- Turn On & Select KVolt: Power up the KM20 and select Spark KVolt as your main measurement.
- Enter KV Adjust Mode: Press and hold the Engine Cycles button until you see KV Scale and a percentage value on the display.
- Adjust Scale: While holding the Engine Cycles button, use the F2 (increase) or F1/Calibrate (decrease) buttons to finetune the scale.
By following these steps and tips, you’ll maximize the diagnostic power of your KM20 Multisystem Ignition Analyzer for spark plug wire ignition systems.
Additional Functions: Expanding Your Diagnostic Toolkit:
ย KM20 Ignition Analyzer offers even more features to enhance your diagnostic process
- Minimum and Maximum Functions (COP and SPW Modes)
- Track the extremes of your measurements with ease
- View Min/Max:
- Press the F2 button to display the minimum and maximum values of your selected main measurement.
- Reset:
- To clear the min/max readings, simply press the Power/Reset button momentarily. This is also done automatically when the analyzer is turned on.
- Spark KVolt Calibration (COP Mode Only):
- Ensure accurate spark KVolt readings for COP and CNP ignition systems
- Why Calibrate:
- Calibration optimizes measurement parameters for your specific ignition module type, compensating for variations in waveform and signal strength.
- How to Calibrate:
- Follow the steps outlined in the Measuring COP and CNP Ignition Systems section above. (See Fig. 7)
- Calibration Reference:
- Once calibrated, subsequent spark KVolt readings will be relative to the value obtained during the procedure.
- Impact on Other Measurements:
- Calibration affects only spark KVolt readings. RPM and spark burn time measurements are absolute and remain unaffected.
Important Notes on Calibration:
- Default Baseline:
- The analyzer displays 10.0 spark KVolt immediately after calibration.
- Non-Comparable Readings:
- Spark KVolt values obtained before and after recalibration may not be directly comparable.
- Uncalibrated Readings:
- The analyzer will display a false 0.0 Spark KVolt reading in COP/CNP mode if not calibrated.
By utilizing these additional functions, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of your engine’s performance and unlock the full potential of your KM20 Multisystem Ignition Analyzer.
Application Information: Interpreting Results for Accurate Diagnosis
Using your KM20 to its fullest potential involves understanding the measurements and diagnosing potential issues:
- Taking Measurements
- Select Ignition System: Follow the instructions in Measurement Procedures to choose the appropriate mode for your engine.
- Observe Readings: Note the spark burn time and spark KVolt values on the display. Slight fluctuations are normal, reflecting real-time changes in the ignition system.
- Record & Compare: Take note of the maximum, minimum, and average readings for each spark plug wire or ignition module. Look for any readings significantly higher or lower than the average.
- Vary Engine Speed: Test at idle and normal operating temperature, then gradually increase RPM up to 2000-2500 (without exceeding the redline). Maintain consistent engine speed during testing, using the KM20’s tachometer function.
- Diagnosing with Spark Burn Time and Spark KVolt
Some variation between cylinders is expected, but significant differences may point to issues:
- RPM & Spark Burn Time:
- These are absolute measurements and should be interpreted directly.
- Spark KVolt:
- This is relative, used to compare ignition modules or spark plug wires within the same engine.
- COP Calibration:
- In COP mode, calibrate spark KVolt on one module before comparing readings across cylinders.
- SPW Placement:
- In SPW mode, the capacitive pick-up’s position on the wire can affect readings due to internal wire resistance. Closer to the distributor/DIS coil typically yields higher voltage readings.
Common Causes of Abnormal Readings:
- Long Burn Time:
- Spark plug issues (short circuit, dirt, small gap)
- Damaged insulator/boot
- Rich mixture
- Low cylinder compression
- Short Burn Time:
- Worn spark plug or wide gap.
- Damaged/loose spark plug connector.
- High resistance in ignition coil primary circuit
- Lean mixture
- Low Spark KVolt:
- Spark plug issues
- Damaged insulator/boot
- Broken sparks plug wire core.
- Short circuit/disconnection in distributor/DIS coil circuit.
- Rich mixture
- Low cylinder compression
- High Spark KVolt:
- Worn spark plug or wide gap.
- Damaged/loose spark plug connector.
- Broken sparks plug wire core.
- Lean mixture
By understanding these common causes and interpreting your KM20’s readings accurately, you can quickly diagnose and address ignition system problems, ensuring optimal engine performance.
